Chapter 1539 1539 [Who was knocking on the door before? 】
Yoko Kinoshita obviously had some opinions on the way the magician handled it: "It's best to let your internal people do these stage effects. It's too much to involve outsiders."
"Doesn't a private detective do anything for money?"
The magician wanted to say so.
But looking at Yoko Kinoshita's face, he changed his words: "I'm sorry, sorry, I really just want to try the effect because I'm very disturbed-look, there are so many audiences here, in case Mr. Jiang Xia is a shy, timid, scared If the people on the stage dare not step forward at critical moments, wouldn’t I die? Could my life be worse than being laughed at once by the audience, not to mention that those laughs are not ridicules, they are praises of his courage .”
Jiang Xia nodded: "That's true, the face of Inspector Yasa and I is not important, as long as people are okay."
Inspector Asaph: "..." Who said it's not important, it's important!
The magician laughed: "I didn't lie just now. The performance in the second half is indeed more thrilling than the first half. If I make a gesture for help, you must remember..."
Before the words were finished, the door of the lounge was suddenly pushed open, and a middle-aged strong man with long hair reaching his shoulders broke in.
He said angrily: "Winter City, what are you messing with just now! The blood bag on the steel knife bed was added by yourself! This is completely different from the performance script I wrote!"
"Of course it is different from your script, because it is my own script." The magician smiled and looked at him gracefully:
"Those things of yours are too ordinary. Among the many magic performances, they can't be remembered at all. But I am different-I dare say that my performance today will definitely become the talk of the streets. Even the famous detectives and ... Cough, I was deceived, the laughter and cheers were so intense, you can't hear them. Please the audience is the first priority, don't you understand? This is the correct way of magic."
Hui Yuanai snorted dissatisfiedly: "Jiang Xia didn't seem to be tricked by magic, but by the 'signal' you abused."
"Signal?" The screenwriter who came to explain it was taken aback, confused, "What signal?"
"It's nothing." The magician didn't intend to let the rest of the team know about it. Except for the apprentice, he really felt that the other four main team members were not very friendly to him—and this person in front of him was obviously the same as the other four team members , are not within the scope of his trust.
The magician looked at the screenwriter, and changed the subject calmly: "So what are you trying to say when you break into my lounge?"
The long-haired man came back to his senses, and waved his hands excitedly: "The effect we want to pursue should be to maintain gorgeousness and elegance in a tense atmosphere—but look at you! What screams, what blood, what pretend magic failed ...this is a bunch of rubbish!"
The two teachers came from the same sect, but now it is the magician who controls the whole regiment, not the script master.
As the original winner, the magician turned a deaf ear to his nagging, sneered, and reached out to his apprentice.
The apprentice understood immediately, took out a transparent medicine bottle, poured out a capsule from it and handed it to him.
The magician took the pill, raised his voice and interrupted the scriptwriter: "Brother Shoji, from now on, don't pursue any gorgeousness or elegance, what we want is a performance that is more exciting and can attract the audience-by myself Come plan."
The long-haired man jumped angrily, but there was nothing he could do: "Hmph, do whatever you want! But you'd better remember clearly that your performance is not exciting at all, it's perverted! This magic troupe will be ruined in your hands sooner or later! "
He walked out cursing and slamming the door.
As he went away, the room quickly fell silent.
The magician smiled at everyone: "I made everyone laugh. The second half of the performance will start soon, and it's time to return to the auditorium—I will definitely bring you a shocking enough magic trick."
…
Whether the magic is shocking enough, Okiya Subaru is not sure.
But as the second half of the performance began, he ushered in a sufficiently shocking questioning.
After asking countless questions, but they were all blocked by Okiya Subaru, Conan found that if he continued to ask such simple questions, there would be no results.
He thought about it, half-guessed and half-deceived: "Speaking of which, in that gothic loli clothing store, why did you hide behind the store?
"Are you the boss there?
"Also, I heard from Police Inspector Assa that they were going to arrest a suspicious Asian man—the man's description sounds very similar to you. What did you do to be targeted by the police?"
Okiya Subaru was a little surprised: It is normal for Conan to know about being wanted, but theoretically speaking, no third person should know about him hiding behind the shop.
At that time, Jiang Xia and the police were confronting the murderer in the store, while Okiya Subaru was nervously hiding in the bedroom behind the gothic loli clothing store, when someone knocked on the door suddenly, he thought the person standing outside the door was Uzo, Almost even wrote the suicide note on the spot... Fortunately, it was later discovered that the one who peeped outside and knocked on the door was just Conan, a curious brat.
Okiya Subaru: "..." Could it be that there was a gap in the door, and when Conan peeked in from the outside, he saw him?
Beside , Conan looked at Okiya Subaru's expression, and realized that it seemed that the graduate student was really the graduate student in the bedroom at the back of the store, not the "that adult" behind the woman in black that he thought at the time.
Realizing this, Conan sighed suddenly, feeling a little disappointed—it wasn't that he had any complaints against Subaru, but the recent behavior of this graduate student. It really didn't look like a mastermind behind the scenes, but a bit like someone being targeted by a black hand. people.
However, if the person behind the door is not behind the scenes, then Xiaolan and Jiang Xia have not yet come into contact with that dangerous person.
Thinking of this, Conan breathed a sigh of relief again, and he chatted: "Why did you suddenly knock on the door from the inside at that time? It scared me, did you think I was someone else?"
After finishing speaking, he was about to observe Okiya Subaru's expression to see if he could find more useful information.
However, seeing this, Conan froze for a moment.
—For some reason, Okiya Subaru's face suddenly became uglier than a dead person, as if he had said something terrible.
Conan was confused, and hesitated for two seconds before saying: "What's wrong? Did I guess it? - Who do you think was the person who knocked on the door? Can you tell me?"
Okiya Subaru stared straight at him, cold sweat gradually dripping down from his forehead.
He has observed words and expressions for many years, so it is very clear that when Conan asked that sentence just now, he did not lie about the context.
—that is, when he was hiding in the back bedroom of the shop yesterday, the kid didn't knock on the door from the outside.
…So who was knocking on the door outside? !
